2021 Buick Excelle interior button introduction: 1. Electronic Stability Program (ESP). The system is enabled by default. It is generally not recommended to turn it off unless driving on slippery surfaces such as rain or snow. 2. Auto Start-Stop. At traffic lights, the engine is temporarily shut off. When the driver's foot leaves the brake pedal, the vehicle will restart. 3. Recirculation/Fresh Air. Recirculation refers to heating or cooling the air inside the car and then recirculating it back into the cabin, while fresh air mode allows outside air to enter the car. Use recirculation mode preferentially in traffic jams, tunnels, or when outside air quality does not meet standards. On highways, it is advisable to periodically switch from recirculation to fresh air mode, with recirculation duration preferably not exceeding one hour. 4. Temperature Zone Synchronization (available in some models). When the temperature zone synchronization function is activated, changing the temperature setting on the driver's side will automatically adjust other zones to the same temperature. When this function is turned off, each zone can be set individually to meet the needs of passengers in different positions.

I've been driving the 2021 Excelle for quite some time, and its interior button design is both practical and intuitive. The buttons on the left side of the steering wheel control the audio: volume adjustment and track skipping buttons are easily operated with the thumb; the right side features cruise control buttons for setting speed adjustments. The most prominent feature on the center console is the air conditioning control area, where the fan speed and temperature knobs operate smoothly, along with a switch button for quickly turning the AC on and off. Below that, the radio and media buttons allow for simple switching between channels or USB song playback. Each door has independent window switches for one-touch up and down convenience while driving. The wiper control stalk near the steering column adapts to different rain conditions, and the lighting controls are also located here for adjusting brightness as needed. The instrument cluster allows for setting display information via buttons to maintain driving alertness. The electronic parking brake button is located on the central channel on the driver's side, making it simple and safe to engage or release. Once familiar, the button feedback is clear, ensuring comfortable daily use with minimal errors.

The 2021 Buick Excelle features a highly integrated button system. The multifunction steering wheel buttons are connected to the control module via vehicle network, triggering instant responses like music station switching with a single press. The reduced number of physical center console buttons minimizes touchscreen distraction risks, while the air conditioning knob incorporates a stepper motor for precise temperature control with minimal vibration. I also noticed the driving mode selector button (if equipped with Eco/Sport modes) has clear switching logic that can improve fuel efficiency. The compactly designed door and window switches ensure fast signal transmission without lag. However, buttons may become loose after wear - it's recommended to check connection points every six months to maintain proper contact and prevent malfunction. For DIY maintenance, clean contact points carefully without disassembling randomly to avoid short circuits. The overall design balances cost and functional practicality.

What are the solutions for timing belt noise?

Here are the solutions for timing belt noise: 1. Identify the cause of abnormal noise: When abnormal noise is detected from the timing belt, first determine whether the noise is caused by the belt itself or by damage to the timing belt tensioner or idler pulley. 2. Belt cracking: Open the cover of the timing belt to expose the belt and pour water on it. If the noise disappears or significantly decreases, it can be confirmed that the noise is from the timing belt. Inspect both sides of the timing belt for fine cracks. If the mileage exceeds 60,000 kilometers and cracks are present, replace the timing belt directly. If the mileage is low and there are no signs of cracking, adjust the belt tensioner to tighten the belt. 3. Pulley noise: If noise persists after pouring water on the belt, the noise is not from the belt. Remove the outer cover of the belt and use a stethoscope to check if the noise is from the belt tensioner or idler pulley. The pulleys have bearings that are prone to damage and noise. Replace the problematic pulley.

Is it serious to have engine oil in the intercooler?

Generally, it is not serious to have engine oil in the intercooler, but it needs to be analyzed based on specific conditions. The following are the reasons for engine oil in the intercooler intake pipe: 1. Internal reasons: prolonged engine idling, clogged or deformed crankcase ventilation system, and coking of lubricating oil in the turbocharger intermediate housing. 2. External reasons: driving conditions and maintenance can cause engine oil to enter the intercooler intake pipe. Below is an introduction to the intercooler: 1. Function: The intercooler's role is to reduce the intake air temperature of the engine. The exhaust gas from the engine is very hot, and the heat conduction from the turbocharger increases the intake air temperature. As air is compressed, its density increases, but this also raises the temperature of the air discharged by the turbocharger. While air pressure increases, oxygen density decreases, thereby affecting the engine's effective charging efficiency. 2. Classification: Intercoolers are usually made of aluminum alloy. Based on the cooling medium, common intercoolers can be divided into two types: air-cooled and water-cooled.

What is the Difference Between Discounted Cars and New Cars?

Here are the differences between discounted cars and new cars: 1. Price: As the name suggests, discounted cars have special prices, often due to manufacturer promotions to attract customers or the launch of new models or updated versions. 2. Sales period: Clearing inventory generally refers to cars that have remained unsold for over three months by the manufacturer, which can then be sold as discounted cars. 3. Quality: New cars come with quality guarantees and are the latest models, providing owners with high-quality after-sales service. Below is additional information about the main items covered in a new car's first maintenance: 1. Engine oil: Replace the engine oil and oil filter. 2. Brake system: Inspect the operation of the brake system. 3. Drive belts: Tighten bolts across various systems and inspect and adjust the drive belts. 4. Tires: Inspect and adjust tire balance and alignment. 5. Inspection: Check and top up various fluids, and inspect the operation of components such as lights, the battery, and shock absorbers.

How to Solve Parking Brake Failure?

To address parking brake failure, it is essential to first identify the cause of the issue before proceeding with repairs. Below are specific reasons for different parking brake failures: 1. Unusual Noises: If knocking sounds are heard from the parking brake while driving, stop the vehicle and inspect it. Check for loose fastening screws, control levers, or fixing pins, and adjust or repair them promptly. 2. Parking Brake Lever Not Staying Fixed: When using the parking brake, if the lever does not stay in the braking position, first release the lever head and check if the lever is bent, stuck, or if the spring is broken. 3. Parking Brake Malfunction: For this issue, inspect whether the gap between the friction pads and the brake drum is too large, if there is oil contamination or severe wear on the friction pads and brake drum, exposed rivets, or surface hardening, which may cause the malfunction.
